Which condition exists at the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere?

Correct Answer: Option D — The Southern Hemisphere is having winter.

During the Northern Hemisphere summer solstice, the North Pole is tilted toward the sun while the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away, resulting in winter conditions, shorter days, and longer nights south of the equator.
